Silvina Ocampo (28 July 1903 – 14 December 1993) was an Argentine short story writer, poet, and artist.[1] Ocampo's friend and collaborator Jorge Luis Borges called Ocampo "one of the greatest poets in the Spanish language, whether on this side of the ocean or on the other."[2] Her first book was Viaje olvidado (1937), translated as Forgotten Journey (2019), and her final piece was Las repeticiones, published posthumously in 2006.
Before establishing herself as a writer, Ocampo was a visual artist.[3] She studied painting and drawing in Paris where she met, in 1920, Fernand Léger and Giorgio de Chirico, forerunners of surrealism.[4]
She received, among other awards, the Municipal Prize for Literature in 1954 and the National Poetry Prize in 1962.
